This book includes detailed, step by step rebuilds of a Tremec/BorgWarner T-5 for a rear-drive car and a Honda B-series front-wheel-drive transaxle. Along the way, the author clearly explains the principles of transmission function and repairs that apply to any car with a manual transmission. You will learn to disassemble and reassemble your tranny, determine what parts to replace, how and why to replace certain seals, bearings, spacers, forks and other parts and where to find the specifications for your particular transmission.

Additional chapters on clutches and flywheels will help you make the most of your car's entire drivetrain. The first manual transmission book of its kind, this is a must have how-to book for anyone with a car with a manual transmission.
